Our tour guide was Christopher and he was fantastic. He met us at our Airbnb and he was so knowledgeable about the history of Krakow. We really enjoyed all of the stories and the historical perspective of Krakow. You should definitely visit beautiful Krakow and request Christopher as your tour guide!!
Super guide with a deep knowledge and passion for his city.
My colleague and I were only in Krakow for a short period of time, and this private tour was the perfect way to get a really good overview of the city. Chris met us on time at our hotel and was friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to answer all our questions. He gave us a really interesting overview of the history of Krakow and Poland, with lots of fascinating tidbits along the way. The tour was nicely paced, although there was an overwhelming amount of information to take in! Highly recommend.
Took an evening tour as an introductory tour of our visit to Krakow! Chris was very accommodative and agreed to pick us up from our hotel a bit earlier than our scheduled booking... AND HE WAS AMAZING, knowledgeable and it was a great and educative introduction to the history of Krakow Old Town and the Wawel Hill... he introduced us to amazing tit bits of Krakow's architecture, monuments and churches ... Three Cheers to Him and we would highly recommend his private tours! Thank you Chris for the amazing walk....
My wife and I did the half day Old Town and Wawel Castle Private Tour as well as a couple other tours with Chris and thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. He's a wealth of knowledge about Krakow, Poland and Polish Jewish history, not to mention his own interesting family story. He paced his walks quite well, was always on time, easy going, patient with our many questions and easy to understand. We were grateful for his perfect English as we knew zero Polish. His prices were quite fair. We would happily use Chris again and we highly recommend him.
Fantastic! Chris was incredibly knowledgeable about Kraków and all of the sites. He answered our questions and really created a wonderfully informative tour. Loved his energy and how enthusiastic he was about sharing the history of Poland. We saw many churches, learned about Copernicus, Pope John Paul II, artist Jan Matejko, and so much more. Old Town and Wawel Castle were beautiful and very vibrant. Highly recommend!
Our tour with Christopher was fantastic! He is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, just lovely! We highly recommend him!
